Chris Matthews Bombs on 'Jeopardy!' After Repeatedly Mocking Palin for How She'd Do
NewsBusters ^ | May 15, 2012 | Noel Sheppard

On at least four occasions, MSNBC's Chris Matthews mocked Sarah Palin for how he felt she'd do if she were ever on the hit television game show Jeopardy!.

In a delicious example of instant karma, the self-proclaimed brainiac got his chance to show American how smart he was in a special "Power Players" version of the show Monday, but came up quite short finishing dead last with the paltry sum of only $2,300 (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):

Oh my gosh LOL! I thought the same thing.

Tinas name was given by the CNN harpy in the final and she was wrong. Justice comes in many forms. :)

Matthews was on Jeopardy in 2010 and embarrassed himself then too. Glutton for punishment.

Hollywood would never do that. They know their kind would probably be devastated worse than Chrissy Matthews was by ‘regular’ people. The really smart ones are the ones pulling the strings and would not allow their puppets to be humiliated..........

It’s a dangerous game, criticising people. That tiger can bite two ways.

It’s always the stupid people who brag about how smart they are.

These people are such asses.

Give them a teleprompter or a cue card and they SOUND brilliant. Ask them a question a fourht grader would know and they are clueless.

I watched the beginning of this tawdry exhibition but switched channels when it became obvious that the entire performance including the "answers" was weighted to make these "contestants" look good.

(Evidently even that kind of coddling couldn't do it for Matthews.)

I was once a fan of Jeopardy. However its Leftist bias has become obvious.

The video gave me a good chuckle. Even I knew all but one of the answers. I guess I’m overqualified for an anchor news job that involves ridiculing other people for how stupid they are.
